The Mighty One approaches, yet I have no fear
Save only that which nature dignifies.
To cling to life is good, and honourable the tear
By which I bless the ruin that about me lies.
As awesome presence fills the room and lo,
The Mighty One is here!

There is a blood-red glory pulsing darkly bright
Where on His forehead gleams the jewel of power.
His, great, black wings cast shadows where there is no light.
Yet in His hand He holds a lovely snow-white flower
Plucked where immortal golden apples grow,
In Mari’s silver bower.

Farewell, dear friends and loved ones, I must take my leave
To wander through the Sumerland a while,
Think not of me as dead when you have ceased to grieve;
I shall grow young again beneath Her radiant smile
That floods all Heaven with a moon-day glow,
Where age cannot defile.

It is with tremendous sadness and love that we share the passing of
many whom we love and known over the years.

7 June 1974
27 April 2013

This past weekend we lost one of our own, it is with a very sad heart that we have to inform every one of the passing of Cheri de Borba Ellis. She was the happiest person I knew always smiling and seeking to help others find inner healing. A light worker and Reiki Master she brought healing to many people and to those who know her personally brought many a smiles and laughter to their lives. She is a presence of light and love and she will be missed surely.

For those who would like to attend the services and are in the area, here is the information
Services for Cheri de Borba will be held at Rocco & Son Funeral Home in Everett, Friday 3 May from 4 -8pm a prayer service will be held at 7:30 pm in the Funeral Home.

An Ordained Reverend under Our Lord and Lady of the Trinacrian Rose Church in Salem, MA and a respecter of all paths and religions, Cheri you will be missed so very much.

On September 15, 2012 e.v. at home on the day of Saturn during the dark of the Moon at 9:05 am, Reverend High Priest Richard Ravish (59) also known as Magister Azaradel of Salem, Massachusetts breathed his last, passed into Spirit and became his body of light. First initiated into the Wiccan priesthood in 1970 e.v., and then welcomed as an Elder into an Alexandrian & Hereditary lineaged family in Kent England in 1986 e.v., Richard was one of the original "Witches of Salem". Alex Sanders also was kind enough to contribute guidance and training to him, both in St. Leonards-on-Sea, Sussex and in correspondence and more recently, Maxine Sanders.

As an ordained minister and Magus of The Temple of Nine Wells - ATC, a public Wiccan congregation in Salem, Richard wrote and lead open circles for each of the Eight Sabbats of the Witches Wheel for over 20 years. He was the High Priest of the Coven of Akhelarre, and served as the Grand Master of his Kentish Witchcraft Line in America, training and initiating suitable students and chartering covens of the Wicca.

In addition to being an active Freemason,a Rosicrucian, a Hermetic Initiate, Heirophant of the Strength of Hadit ( his private Enochian temple ) and a Thelemic Magician, of 45+ years of active study and practice, Richard attained the grade of Adeptus Major in the Thelemic Golden Dawn before parting ways with its founder. Within the past eight years Richard became a member of Ordo Templi Orientis and a novitiate priest in the Ecclesia Gnostica Catholicae.

As founder and co-owner of White Light Pentacles/Sacred Spirit Products Inc. and proprietor of his store, Nu Aeon, Richard earned his livelihood designing and providing the tools of Witchcraft and Alternative Spirituality both retail and wholesale to stores and individual practitioners worldwide. His most powerful mystical vision came into physical manifestation as curator of his newly opened Gallery of Stellar Art, Light and Magick which he named THE COSMIC CONNECTION, a Temple of Stars, where the Sea meets the Sky, 88 Constellations at 88 Wharf Street. He designed THE COSMIC CONNECTION to be a spiritual condenser of the Astral Light and a finely tuned ritual instrument for those who are ready to believe in and work with Gods and Goddesses, Angels and Higher Spiritual Realities.

Richard Ravish is survived by his wife of 31 years, Reverend High Priestess Amy "Gypsy" Ravish, his daughter Asherah Aphrodite Ravish and step daughter Kitoto Von Hebb, his sister Sandra McCandless, cousins, nieces and his familiar, Cosmo Skyrocket Ravish. He will be sorely missed by many as he travels beyond the veils to the starry realms of angels. The highest are of us. Love is the law, love under will.

Thomas Hicks

Lord Merlin (David John White)

Born ?? England - Died Sept. 23, 2011 Atlanta, GA

Lord Merlin, aka David John White, was the elder high priest of the Ravenwood tradition for almost three decades and he died over a week ago, on Mabon. He led an extraordinary life, much like his wife Lady Sintana, and he died a year and a week after she passed from us. He was there by the Lady to bless the founding of my coven, and when I’m initiated this Saturday he will be a part of my lineage, my spiritual grandfather. Though I never met him, his passing fills me with sadness, and more than a little anger. Read More...

Lady Sintana

Used w/Permission from Lady Larina

Without Lady Sintana’s tenacity, vision, and dedication to the Craft, most of us would not enjoy the freedoms of our religion today. Her contributions to Wiccan civil rights cannot be measured. Having been trained by many in the Traditional Craft community including Lord Sariel from the Isle of Man and Lady Circe of the Brotherhood and Sisterhood of Wicca in Toledo, OH, Lady Sintana founded Ravenwood Church & Seminary of Wicca, Inc. in the Little Five Points area of Atlanta in the 1970s. Through numerous court battles to win incorporation and recognition for Ravenwood as a 501c3 not for profit church, Lady Sintana paved the way for public acceptance of the Craft as a legitimate religion. Throughout her life, she served as a renowned and respected Craft Elder who was known for her outspoken commitment to promoting public education and understanding of the Old Ways. There were countless many who loved her, some who feared her, but never one who forgot her. We are all in her debt. With her passing, we lose yet another of the Elders who have shaped and formed our heritage and identity today. May we honor her memory and legacy by living truly, honestly and sincerely in keeping with the Old Laws and sacred teachings of our various Traditions. Journey well in Love and Trust, Great Lady. May we meet, and know, and love one another again in days and lives to come.

As
we Remember
Michael Jackson

Michael
Joseph Jackson,
born on 29
August 1958,
ruling number
6 the number
of Venus of
love, compassion
and a nurturing
soul, finding
his true self
in doing good
deeds, and
then he returned
home on the
25th day of
June 2009,
again ruling
nubmer 6 Venus
a time of
death and
life, we must
remember a
man who lived
life to help
others as
a World Ambassador,
a brother,
father and
husband while
he was married.
Michael is
loved by hundreds
of thousands
from around
the globe
and he never
faltered in
showing how
he loved compassionatly
back to everyone.

We
need to also
remember Michael
accepted everyone
no matter
their race,
creed, colour
or religion
and through
this he brought
Unity, he
knows that
one is not
defined by
what they
look like
or how they
believe, but
by their Heart
which is the
truth of ones'
Soul, how
he lived life
and treated
humanity is
how we need
to embrace
and work together
in order to
bring healing
to this World.
His song We
are the World
says it all.
How does one
of his stature
enjoy privacy
in his life,
in where he
felt more
alive when
he was surrounded
by those in
whom he could
help, this
is what him
the happiest. Misunderstood,
yes, mistreated
by the media,
yes, Loved
by all, Yes.

Micheal
Joseph, two
names in which
are sacred,
one in which
speaks of
Michael the
ArchAngel,
the protector,
the one who
brought balance
and order,
yet who loves
those with
a passion.
Jospeh the
man who in
historical
times stood
by Mary and
accepted though
not by his
own seed to
raise a son
in which was
bestowed upon
to Mary by
the Angel
Gabriel for
humanity to
find unity
and healing
in the world.
Sounds, like
Michael Joseph
Jackson, lived
up to his
path in this
life.

Now,
Michael, you
are home,
home with
those who
have by thought,
word and deed
given and
done the job
in which was
bestowed upon
you by the
Gods and Angels
and you did
it well. May
you sing,
dance and
enjoy your
new life,
your new journey
and when you
are again
ready and
better prepared
return to
this Earth
to guide another
generation.

May
the Blessings
of myself,
Temple of
Diana &
Our Lord and
Lady of the
Trinacrian
Rose Church
be with you
and your family
always. We
are of the
same mind
in that we
respect all
religions,
all cultures,
creeds, and
colours and
we seek to
see a Better
Place for
all of Humanity.

Today,
watching his
Memorial on
CNN, you saw
all those
who lives
were touched
by Michael,
today you
saw a member
of the House
bring an Honour
bestowed upon
to Michael
for the Humanitarian
Ambassador,
you saw his
daugher Paris
speak and
listening
to her broke
my heart,
so young to
have lost
her Father,
and for her
the Best Father
one could
have had i
this life.
So instead
of assuming
and making
Asses out
of you and
Me, start
looking at
what he accomplished
in his life.
Many

Blessings
and May the
Gods and Angels
guide you
on your new
path.
